STATE MEET QUALIFICATION PROCESS:
To qualify as an INDIVIDUAL: Each region will
qualify 20% of the total number of (AA & A) contestants
that start the regional race to the state meet, inclusive of
those individuals that qualified as a team qualifier. A minimum of 10
individuals will qualify from each region. Regular math rounding (.5 & up,
round up, below .5, round down) will apply. Please
note: Individual qualifying is not separated by
classes!
To qualify as a TEAM: This depends on how many complete teams (5 or more runners) start
the race in your regional. Team
qualifying standards will apply to “AA” schools, as a separate group and to “A”
schools as a separate group: If only 1 full team in your
classification starts in your regional, it qualifies. If 2-5
teams in your classification start at your regional, the top 2
qualify. If 6-9 teams in your classification start at your
regional, the top 3 qualify. If more than 10 teams in your
classification start at your regional, the top 4 qualify.
